Modern Snack Bar

I love the neon at the Modern Snack Bar in Aquebogue, NY!

Hanging Out with Richie & Lisa

Beautiful home & backyard!

Dinner at Maroni Cuisine in Southold with Richie & Lisa. I had to order the Korean Style BBQ Ribs with gummy bear garnish! Who ever hear of gummy bear garnish?!? It was delicious

The North Fork

Back to Long Island ... the east end. We had breakfast at Lolly's Hut Snack Bar in Riverhead. We had to get a t-shirt & shoot a selfie for Uncle Larry!

After breakfast we went to visit Richie & Lisa. We haven't been to their house since they moved from Greenport to Laurel. I love the dachshund & frog art on the outside of the backyard pool shower. 

 

Richie & Google posed in the shower. Look at those smiles!

Google was asleep on the patio ...

...  but woke up as soon as he heard everyone say "CHEESE"

Dog Chapel

We stopped at the Dog Chapel at Dog Mountain in St. Johnsbury, VT.

Leashes are optional & pups are free to run around & make new friends.

Mary & Google posed when we went in.

 

It's beautiful inside with dog themed stained glass ...

... & everyone is invited to post a photo of their dearly departed dog & a note about what their pup meant to them.

There are photos & notes EVERYWHERE!!!

Google is such a good boy ... & poser!

 

 Google said, "there are dogs everywhere!"

I signed the guest book.

Dog Mountain is the home of the Stephen Huneck Gallery. I love his dog art!

From their website:

Dog Mountain is set on 150 acres on a private mountaintop spot in St. Johnsbury, Vermont. The grounds are always open to people and their dogs. Stephen Huneck and his wife, Gwen, bought the property in 1995. They turned the barn into studio space. After Stephen’s unique visionary experience, the Dog Chapel soon followed. The Dog Chapel opened its doors Memorial Day weekend of 2000. The unspoiled haven is covered with hiking trails and dog ponds. Wildflowers abound in the summer and snow-shoeing is a favorite activity in the winter. Year after year, the Dog Chapel and the Stephen Huneck Gallery get more and more visitors from all over the world.  In 2015, the non-profit organization Friends of Dog Mountain (FODM), was established by family and friends of Stephen and Gwen Huneck. As of late 2017, FODM became the owner and manager of Dog Mountain. Leashes are optional on Dog Mountain. Dogs are free to run, play, swim, and (best of all) meet other dogs! Dogs are not just welcome here, they are cherished.

Campground Buddy & Awesome Campfire

Google made a new friend!

View from our campsite at Lake St George State Park.

Even though he's not smiling, Google loves campfires.

Mary fired this iPhone long exposure with her Apple Watch.

Lobster & Lake St George State Park

Mary loves lobster!

We loved the campground at Lake St George State Park! We were only gonna stay one or two nights but we stayed six!

My new favorite flavor ice cream ... Ben & Jerry's Scoop-a-palooza Coffee & Fudge Chip!

Visiting Ken, Rhona & the Alpacas

Friendly tire man on our drive.

We went to visit Ken & Rhona at their house they're rebuilding in Maine.

Great windows & view from the primary bedroom upstairs.

 

 It's great going out to lunch with old friends.

Selfie at the Northern Solstice Alpaca Farm.

In the backyard with Ken on Lake Winnecook in Burnham, ME.

Rhona likes to take pictures ... not be in them.

Maine Haircut & Sights

I really needed a haircut & knew my Jacksonville haircutter Katie moved to Maine about 10 years ago. I texted her & she still cuts hair, in Farmingdale, about 40 minutes from our campground. It was so great to see her. I did "before, during & after" pix.
